Humbug

Just don't go.

As has been pointed out many times, there are probably a couple of hundred Hull FC fans who use this website, a tiny percentage of the supporter base. How do you organise a boycott?

Crowds will drop anyway - check out how they fell towards the end of last season. We went from 14,000+ for the Wigan and Cas games and a respecable 12,482 against Catalans to under 11,000 against Warrington and less than 12,000 against Leeds.

The club have already got money from over 9,000 season ticket holders anyway.

we should all throw chicken nuggets on the field to show our anger

I agree to a certain extent but I think you underestimate how many people actually use this forum, they are 100's if not thousands who will just read and have not even registered. Plus people talk to each other about Rugby all the time, the word does get around.

The club also are not guarnteed 9000 season ticket holders for next season.

That is certainly true, unless we have an amazing run in the second half of the season.

Read this with interest and like last week seems to be a hung parliment!
A lot on here are lamenting the fact Kath doesnt seem to front up enough ie, she doesnt care about fc because she's faceless and only interested in making money. Shes detached from the fans etc.
However the same few abhor the fact that Hudgell is always in the news, always having his say, too big for his boots, should keep his gob shut etc.
So my question is HOW do you want Kath to behave? behind the scenes moneymaker or upfront in your face supporter. Or something in between.

Like someone with clear aspirations of getting the club of which she is chairperson into the top 4 every season by getting a top class coach in. I actually prefer her low profile to Hudgell's rather embarrassing bar stool antics.

Is this for real???? Feck it why dont we start a breakaway team fc hull i am the coach anybody else in???

Its that low the last known picture of her was at Wembley in 2008.

As much as I am unhappy at our current situation, it is nothing compared to how fans of Manchester United are being screwed over, the two cannot be comapred.

As for the Glazers not willing to sell, I dont think that was ever the aim of the green and gold protest, it was just the first step in uniting the fans against the Glazer family and it has worked effectively, its no coincidence that the red knights takeover campaign has gathered momentum on the the back of the green and gold protests.

One massive difference between the two clubs is that matchday income and season ticket sales makes up a much bigger percentage of turnover for Hull FC then it does for MUFC, and while the Glazers have thousands and thousands of braindead idiots willing to pay whatever it takes to get hold of a season ticket if existing pass holders didnt renew or boycotted, this is not the case with Hull FC, if Hull fans boycotted the board would have no choice but to listen, they would have too.

I bet the first manu fan who suggested wearing scarves was laughed at. Funny how things turn out. Far too many fans are quick to ridicule but not offer any alternative suggestions. Oh yeah thats right, we'll all just sit on our computers discussing the same things over and over.

FWIW the Man Utd scarf campaign started from a post on forum, but agreed people seemmore interested in knocking an idea rather then doing something psoitive.

Only one Neil Hudgell.

ones too many!

my thoughts exactly!! well put

I rest my case Sir!
Thank you.

Explain to me what the point for the protest is?

Being profitable?
Being in 6th after 13 games?

There is no basis for a protest, unless you're going to call it the "We dont like Richard Agar" protest, which is, in a word, pathetic.

I dislike Agar as a coach with a passion, but a protest would do nothing but embarass us as fans.

Oh Christ not you agen, I can't be bothered.
Talk about revolving doors!

You mean "yes, you're right, but I can't form an argument so I'll just toddle off"

In your world.
You mean to say that after what is now eight pages of this stuff, you come back to me and ask what the point is??
Firstly, I was not trying to 'form an argument', you are.
All I asked in the very first post was, what did people think to a scarf protest. I did not say it was good, bad or otherwise, you appeared to take the view of knowing it all and trying to argue the tQss. I read many people's views and agree with quite a lot - either way.
The point I suppose is that, at the moment there is a strong basis on this forum of people not agreeing with the selection of the present coach. So, rather than sat around on backsides, would fans do something about it - hence the post.
If you don't want to be embarrassed, don't take part, simple.

I think what he means standee is that your opinions vary so much that it is impossible to know what your opinion actually is. one minute you are saying that our club is a joke and then you call someone who wants to do something about it pathetic. As I said earlier, if you have any other suggestions feel free to share. However, if your happy with the way the club is ran at present, that is fair enough, just seems that you are usually one of the first to slate the club when something goes wrong

Im not happy with the selection of coach, but I am not daft enough to think wearing scarves would make one iota of difference.

The board do not care what the fans think, until it costs them money.

so if all of our pass holders wore red and white scarves they wouldnt care? really? we are in no way like man utd. They lose 10,000 pass holders there are 50,000 lining up to take there place. Is it the same with us?
